Okay, give us a great story

2:39

about how your mom has shaped you into

2:43

many to count. That's one that sticks out. Okay,

2:47

I can say she did

2:50

so good story.

2:51

She loves horror movies, so she

2:53

has framed me to love them as well. One night

2:56

she came home and just turned off all the lights

2:58

and just said, candy man.

3:00

Can oh it's enough, don't look in Americas.

3:02

And me and my cousin ran around the house super crazy,

3:05

afraid that he was just going to pop up.

3:06

So she's,

3:10

you know what, may know, Grego's in the

3:12

building, but he to her. And by the way, just

3:14

so she knows, Denzel is number one on

3:22

it's old the Little Things.

3:25

Yeah, so you know, all right, Well, who do you

3:27

guys want to shine a light on eight hundred two, nine fifty

3:29

fifty. What's that's, Samantha? Who you want to shine a light on?

3:32

My son, Elijah. He's eleven

3:34

years old and he has a heart of gold. He's

3:36

always wanting to feed the homeless.

3:37

And now he is going through some medical

3:40

stuff and for Eastern all

3:42

he wanted to do was give

3:44

to everybody else.

3:45

Oh Elijah, that is so sweet. So

3:48

he's being really giving even though

3:50

he's having some medical problems.

3:53

Yeah, they just found a fist on his brain

3:56

and he's going to have some neurosurgery

3:59

testing this week, and he just puts

4:01

it.

4:02

For Easter.

4:02

All he wanted to do was go out.

4:04

And feed the homeless.

4:05

And I said to him, Aliza, you have to think about yourself,

4:07

and he was like, no, Mom, He's like we're fine.

4:09

He's like, you always make sure we're okay. He's like, we

4:11

have to make sure everybody else is fine.

4:13

Oh my gosh. That is so what a sweetheart.

4:16

And they feel like he'll be okay though.

4:18

Right we're hoping it was found

4:20

by mistake. Keep passed down at a water

4:22

park and started shaking and we rushed

4:24

him to the hospital and they found it on

4:26

his brain by doing his skin because he was

4:28

unresponsive.

4:29

All right, well, you know what, Thank god they found

4:31

out and he's in good spirits. And

4:34

I'm praying for Elijah right now. But

4:36

thank you so much for calling. It feels like he

4:38

learned that from you.

4:40

I couldn't have raised the better kids.

4:41

All right, well, thank you so much for colling. Shout

4:44

out to you, Elijah.

4:45

Thank you.

4:46

All right, Well that was shine a light. And when

4:48

we come back, we have your yee

4:50

tea, and let's talk about everything that's

4:52

been happening with Diddy. I know every single

4:54

day Misa Hilton, the mother to

4:57

Justin, his oldest son, is speaking out and

4:59

so is the V will tell you what both of them

5:01

had to say.

5:02

It's way up, they say in

5:04

the rooms from industry shade.

5:06

To all the gossip out angelus

5:09

spilling that et.

5:11

It's way up. And Mano's here with you. Yeah

5:14

yeah, let's get into some yet. Let's

5:16

talk about Ditty as we've been doing every

5:18

single day. So Misa Hilton,

5:21

who is Justin's mother, and Justin

5:23

is thirty years old right now, that's Ditty's son. Justin's

5:25

restaurant was named after him. She went on

5:27

social media and this is her first time speaking

5:30

on what's been happening with the house raids,

5:32

with all the allegations against Diddy,

5:34

But she's more coming for their

5:37

children, all right, And she said the over

5:39

zealous and overly militarized force

5:41

use against my sons, Justin and Christian is

5:43

deplorable. If these were the sons of a

5:45

non black celebrity, they would not have been handled

5:48

with the same aggression. The attempt to humiliate

5:51

and terrorize these innocent young black men is

5:53

despicable. Enough is enough?

5:55

Did Justin need several laser beams from firearms

5:58

pointed at his chest? Did christ Send need

6:00

a gun pointed at the back of his head while he was handcuffed?

6:03

How many times have we seen young, unarmed

6:05

black men not make it out of these types

6:07

of situations alive. So she did

6:09

say that she has retained an attorney as

6:12

they are investigating this. Now,

6:15

one thing I have said all along is I feel

6:17

really bad for the kids, right, you know,

6:20

because they did have to deal with all of this. Well, now

6:22

there is a lawsuit against Christian

6:25

Holmes that is happening

6:27

that he's being accused of sexually assaulting

6:30

and drugging a woman. You know. He

6:32

did write on social media that it was cap.

6:34

He did say, you know cap, but we don't know exactly

6:37

what he was referencing. But he

6:39

has not addressed these directly. So

6:42

there is a lawsuit in the

6:44

works. We don't have all of the details. The alleged

6:46

victim has yet to be revealed, and right

6:48

now everything is kind of sparse. But these

6:51

claims have been made, so we

6:54

shall see what happens with

6:56

that man. This is like so much

6:58

fallout now. In the meantime, there are people who

7:00

are coming to his defense. Stevie

7:03

J, who's obviously one of

7:05

the producers who works very closely with

7:07

Diddy, who also was at his house working on his

7:09

album, had this to say on TMZ.

7:12

Whatever someone does in their bedroom, that's what they

7:14

do. I don't got nothing to do with that. I'm just here to say

7:17

that I've never seen my men doing

7:19

anything final like they talk about. I'm

7:21

known him for twenty nine years and then

7:23

it's like with guys like like fifty

7:26

Uncle Tom cast like that. You

7:28

know, he wants to bring the black community

7:30

down worse than anyone

7:33

else.

7:34

Now, MANO you also spoke

7:37

on this on the Bailer Alert podcast,

7:39

and the headlines with things

7:43

like Mano suggest diddy sexual assault

7:45

lawsuits are propaganda and clowns

7:47

accuse it, little ride. But let's hear exactly

7:50

what happened.

7:51

Do you think it's like agenda

7:54

to destroy pop?

7:55

This is one of saying, you know anything about

7:57

the sixties and what they did with black leadership

7:59

and all that they divide and conquered

8:01

cointell.

8:02

Pro what they would do us.

8:03

They will put out misinformation,

8:06

have us looking at each other, and

8:08

also propaganda which is

8:10

fed through the media. It's a tool

8:13

that's always been used. So I'm not quick

8:15

to jump at what everybody

8:17

else is running towards Billy.

8:21

Okay, so that was the headline there.

8:23

Let's not Meek defending Diddy. I ain't in a position

8:25

to defend Ditty.

8:26

I'm just saying in general, I'm not quick

8:28

to just run left when everybody else is running left.

8:31

Let's wait and see what's happening. If

8:33

somebody done something wrong, then I mean, they're gonna

8:35

be accountable. But

8:38

at the same time, do I feel like sometimes there's an

8:40

agenda? Yeah, I mean, and let's not act like

8:42

because they're like, oh, man, he's you're comparing him to

8:44

a to a to a leader in the sixties.

8:46

No, I'm just.

8:47

Saying he's a powerful black man, right,

8:49

and you know, we know he was having issues

8:51

or whatever. And then a lot of these things are coming

8:54

out. I don't know if all of these things

8:56

are true, but generally we've

8:58

seen this before period.

9:00

Yeah, okay, all right, well that is your yut.

9:02

And when we come back, Oh, we have about

9:04

last night. That's where we discussed what he did

9:07

last night. I was out last night and I

9:09

never do this until like one thirty in the morning, but

9:11

we'll talk about it.

9:12

It's well, so about

9:14

last night, Yes, he

9:17

went down.

9:19

Okay, you like that song it's

9:22

way up. It's about last night. Ma, No, it's

9:24

bad. Yeah,

9:27

So tell me what you did last night, and then I'll tell you what

9:29

I did.

9:29

Oh. Well, I flew back in town.

9:31

I got back about about one o'clock in the You

9:33

exhausted, Yeah, a little

9:36

bit, okay, because I knew I wanted to come here in the

9:38

morning. Yes, I stayed in Atlanta

9:40

extra two days. I wanted to pull up at the court at

9:42

the courthouse to see young Thug. I didn't feel

9:44

it was right that I was, you know, out promoting

9:46

the song, and then I was I got to Atlanta and then

9:49

gotta go see him. Yeah, you know, I just don't feel

9:51

like, you know, that was cool. So I

9:53

got to see him. You know, I walked in the court room. He

9:55

looked up, he smiled. You see me,

9:57

you know, throw a thumbs up, you know, hearing good

10:00

spirits.

10:00

You know.

10:01

I stayed for a while. They put in the motion to try to

10:03

have those lyrics suppressed. The

10:05

George denied it, but I thought it was important

10:07

for me to show up. This is sort of that support

10:10

for him, and you know I did

10:12

that.

10:12

Okay, I love it.

10:14

Well.

10:15

Last night I was out late, and you know I do not

10:17

stay out late, but I did Godfrey's and Godfrey

10:19

Retrust podcasts with him and Dante Narrow. Supposedly

10:23

it starts at ten instead a little after ten, and

10:25

then I was there till like one am

10:28

doing the podcast. But it was good. It was fun.

10:30

It was a great conversation. I know both of them,

10:33

and so we talked about a

10:36

variety of different things.

10:37

You know.

10:38

They asked me questions about my own

10:41

coming into this radio business, what I

10:43

did before that, and

10:45

then we had some great conversations

10:48

about current events and entertainment

10:50

and all of that. So you could check that out on Godfrey's

10:52

page. You know, he has a go fund me because he's trying

10:55

to get funding to do his own comedy special because

10:57

he was talking about how certain coming

11:00

like they haven't been getting those offers

11:02

from these networks.

11:04

It.

11:04

Yeah, so you kind of got to do it just out exactly,

11:07

and so he's trying to get that done. So we were talking

11:09

about the stigma of GoFundMe because sometimes

11:11

people feel like when you start that, you

11:13

know it just people

11:16

sometimes can be embarrassed to do it. But Dante

11:18

talked him into it, so I'm glad he did. So

11:20

make sure you donate to his GoFundMe. And

11:22

then I was also meeting with have

11:25

you ever done virtual golf?

11:28

I've done top golf?

11:30

Okay, So there's a golf Zone Social

11:32

that's going to be coming to Brooklyn and it's opening

11:35

in a in maybe like a month, and

11:37

so I was meeting with Sean

11:39

from golf Zone Social and

11:41

so I'm excited about that. I just did virtual

11:44

golf for the first time when I was in Detroit, at the

11:46

MGM, I did top golf and it was really

11:48

fun. But they're gonna have people that can actually train you,

11:51

you know, to be able to like real PGA

11:53

golfers that can train you professionals.

11:56

So I'm excited about that. And so that's

11:58

going to be opening since so I know, oh, whenever

12:01

you decide to come to Brooklyn, we'll go.

12:02

No, you gotta stop, like

12:04

you just have to stop. I'll

12:07

be there.

12:08

Okay. So I'm excited about that. But yeah, that was

12:10

fun because I've decided I used

12:12

to play field hockey. A lot of people don't know that, but

12:14

I did play field hockey when I was in high school.

12:16

That's the one in the grass. Yeah, but it's not real

12:19

hockey.

12:19

Yeah, field hockey.

12:20

Yeah, but it's not like you got to be on the ice, baby, phil

12:23

Is.

12:23

I mean, it's it's a different sport. It's just

12:26

like you know what, and that ball moves a lot slower

12:28

on the grass and heavy.

12:29

Yeah, it's like, yeah, not like real.

12:32

Don't do that. Don't do that to yourself because

12:34

I have them feel hockey women waiting downstairs

12:36

for you with their sticks and their

12:39

mouthguards and their shan guards. What did

12:41

it attack all right, well anyway, eight

12:43

13:19

But what didn't the cousin do to deserve this?

15:26

He took is too, so that's why afterwards

15:29

he was like trying to you know what I'm saying, instigate

15:31

the situation. So I'm in the video.

15:33

You gotta go deeper, bro, like Pauls say,

15:36

you gotta you gotta do you know what I'm saying, Like, if

15:38

you're gonna do it, do it now.

15:40

You gotta understand.

15:41

I know this god, this guy he go hard for his

15:43

family, Like.

15:43

But if you would have knocked off his wife or his

15:46

girl somebody he was sleeping with.

15:47

But he ain't got one though, A

15:49

wait for him to get one day and.

15:51

Then call back all made

15:53

him feel bad about his secret, like it wasn't.

15:55

It wasn't really, it wasn't like

15:57

fol okay, the file wasn't filing

16:00

all right.

16:01

Well that was tell us a secret. It was supposed

16:03

to be no judgment, but you made that guy feel like my

16:05

secret wasn't nothing.

16:06

They gotta start really calling up

16:09

there, really, you know.

16:09

We need some foulness.

16:10

Yeah, like if you're going to go here, go there.

16:13

And he gave his name and everything he wasn't secret

16:15

in, but that is tell us

16:17

a secret. And when we come back we have your

16:19

yee te. Well, let's talk about Lizzo. You know, she

16:21

says she quit, but what does she mean when

16:23

she said she quit? We'll talk about it. It's way up

16:26

the shore.

16:26

She's about to blow the lead ab off this, but let's get

16:28

it. Angelus building that yet,

16:31

come and get the tea.

16:32

All right, it's way up with Angela. Yeah, I'm here,

16:34

Mano's here. No, we need

16:37

a behind the scenes show. But

16:39

since we just played Nicki Minaj, let's talk about

16:41

this letter that was written more than two

16:43

hundred artists that include Billie Eilish, Nicki Minas,

16:46

the Jonas Brothers. They wont tech companies

16:48

and artificial intelligence developers and digital

16:50

music services to cease the use

16:53

of AI over concerns of the impact that it

16:55

will have on artists and songwriters. That open

16:57

letter was actually published yesterday and

17:00

talking about the unregulated use of AI in the music

17:02

industry that could sabotage creativity,

17:05

undermined artists, songwriters, musicians and

17:07

the rights holders.

17:08

Be playing with that AI. This is the rise of the machines.

17:11

Yeah, so you know, be careful with that,

17:13

everybody, because and artists do need

17:15

to start thinking about this now before it's

17:17

too late.

17:18

Not just all it's just every aspect of life,

17:20

all right.

17:21

Now.

17:21

Beyonce has been sending a lot of bouquets

17:24

out to people, and one person who's got a

17:26

bouquet of flowers no, I'm not an artist that

17:28

she was inspired by. But Jack

17:31

White shared photographs of a bouquet

17:33

and a thank you note, and it said, I hope you are well. I just

17:35

wanted you to know how much you inspired me on this record.

17:38

So he expressed his admiration. He said,

17:40

what a sweet gesture to receive here in Nashville this morning

17:42

from the talented and gracious Beyonce celebrating

17:45

her new Cowboy Carter album. And so

17:47

people have been getting these these flowers

17:49

from her as she is now the

17:52

first black woman to reach number one on Billboards

17:54

Hot Country Songs chart with her Texas Hold'em.

17:57

And her other single, sixteen Carriages, debuted at

17:59

number nine on that same chart. So shout out

18:01

to Beyonce. Now, the first

18:03

week predictions they are saying

18:05

is going to be four hundred and five thousand

18:08

units. Can you believe that? I

18:11

mean, that is crazy.

18:13

This is nineties numbers.

18:15

They said. The pure sales that she has from

18:17

that that's one hundred and seventy one thousand

18:20

units is going to outseill the entire Billboard

18:22

two hundred combined. Okay,

18:24

Beyonce, Cowboy Carter and Michelle

18:26

Obama has also congratulated her. She posted

18:29

a message to her, you have changed the game

18:31

once again by helping redefine a music genre

18:33

and transform our culture. I'm so proud

18:36

of you. And then she also of course

18:38

encourage people to vote. All right, we

18:40

need to keep the faith and vote, and you can register

18:42

at when we all vote.

18:44

All right.

18:45

Now, Lizzo has added some clarity

18:48

around her recent declaration that she is quitting

18:51

music. People thought she was quitting music, but

18:54

here's what she had to say. She said she's not leaving music

18:56

per se. She clarified when she said

18:58

I quit what she meant.

19:00

When I say I quit, I mean I

19:03

quit giving any negative

19:06

energy attention.

19:08

What I'm not gonna quit is the joy

19:10

of my life, which is making music, which is

19:12

connecting the people, because.

19:14

I know I'm not alone, all

19:16

right. So that's just for clarity. She's still

19:18

gonna be joyous in her music

19:21

and do what she loves, but she is

19:23

not going to, you

19:25

know, I guess share certain things with people.

19:27

She's gonna quit responding and giving energy. That's

19:30

a hard thing to do sometimes as an artist, but

19:32

I think that makes the most sense. I had a conversation

19:35

on Godfrey's podcast about that just last

19:37

night, all right, and now let's

19:39

talk about Fallin from Real Housewives

19:42

of Atlanta formerly from Real Housewives of Atlanta,

19:44

And she has said publicly before that that show

19:46

kind of ruined a lot of what she had going

19:48

on and definitely ruined her marriage and

19:51

Portia, as we all know, married her

19:53

ex husband Simon Quick But

19:55

now after fifteen months, they have decided

19:58

to end their marriage, and Fallin is speaking

20:00

out for the first time about the tea

20:02

that she has. I've got

20:04

tea coming for y'all. Okay, I know y'all been

20:06

waiting for me to say something.

20:08

I'm coming.

20:10

Well, we're not gonna do.

20:11

They'll be coming on here be a messy y'all. All

20:14

right, So I guess at some point she's

20:17

gonna have something to say, and I know people want to

20:19

hear that because this was such a crazy

20:21

situation from the beginning. All right,

20:23

Well that is your yet and when we come

20:25

back, we have under the radar. These are the stories that are

20:28

not necessarily in the headlines.

20:30

They are flying under the radar. Have you ever

20:32

may or seen somebody on the plane that was dressed

20:34

inappropriately or is this such a thing? What

20:37

you mean like someone getting on the plane as a passenger

20:40

and you're like you.

20:41

Were another girl like like, oh she

20:43

got on that, I enjoyed

20:45

it. Okay.

20:46

Anyway, this passenger is saying

20:48

that she was told to she

20:50

got escorted off a flight, and will tell you

20:52

what she had on or didn't have on that

20:55

caused that to happen. And under the radar, it's way up.

20:57

These stories are flying under the radar,

21:00

all right.

21:00

This way up with Angela. Ye, I'm Angela. Yee manos

21:02

in the building?

21:03

No man, now you.

21:04

Ready to go under the radar. Let's do it all right,

21:06

Well, let's talk about home purchases. More

21:09

than one third of homes in February

21:11

were purchased with cash. You know

21:13

why that is mortgage rates are still ridiculously

21:17

high. Yeah, so the rate of all cash purchases

21:20

is within striking distance of the record

21:23

high. The record high was thirty eight percent and twenty

21:25

thirteen. This is a time when cash rules.

21:27

You know.

21:28

I was actually when I was

21:30

seeing this story this morning, I was looking

21:32

at what I paid for my house and the mortgage

21:34

I took out, and I got a three point twenty five

21:36

percent rate because I got it at a time when the rates were

21:39

really low, and I was comparing it to

21:41

what the rate what it would be now. And

21:43

you know what the difference is in price per

21:45

month on my mortgage. If I would have had to get like

21:48

a six point eight percent, it

21:50

would be an additional four thousand dollars

21:52

a month. And that is why, And

21:54

that's you know, it was an expensive house. But you

21:57

know, even if you look at something that's it's

21:59

probably about like thirty forty more

22:01

than what she would be paying. So that's crazy,

22:04

all right. Now a Delta passenger is calling

22:06

on them to change their policy. She was escorted

22:08

off a flight because she didn't have on a bra Lisa

22:11

Archbold. She said the gate agent told her

22:13

it was offensive and revealing. Now she

22:15

has an attorney. This is a story

22:17

that we heard previously in January. It

22:20

got some attention, but now she's lawyered up. She

22:22

has Gloria already as her attorney.

22:25

That was wrong, what to escort

22:27

her?

22:27

Yeah, like she didn't have a bra on.

22:30

Yeah, she said that she was told her

22:32

outfit was offensive, it was revealing.

22:35

She was allowed to get back on the plane after

22:37

putting on a button up shirt that she tied around her

22:40

that she had tied around her.

22:40

This is America.

22:42

She said she was targeted and humiliated.

22:45

She said, I wore the same clothing any man

22:47

might wear. I also have a chest smaller than many

22:49

men on that flight. Where does delta draw

22:51

the line?

22:52

Throw the line Delta, this is America. She

22:54

should be able to wear no bra.

22:56

Yeah.

22:56

I do find that to be a weird It is so

22:59

wrong. I don't

23:01

know the picture of what that was like. But

23:03

I also feel like you shouldn't be forced to do

23:07

Yeah. I mean maybe it was, but we

23:09

see guys nipples when they wear shirts if

23:11

it's cold, right, I don't know about that

23:14

for real. All right, well that is you're

23:16

under the radar, now, you know. We got the Way Up Mix at the top

23:18

of the hour plus it is a Wealth Wednesday,

23:20

and Cassandra Cummings is going to be joining

23:23

us. She is the founder of Stocks

23:29

23:43

and she's a financial advisor, and she says, and I'm all

23:46

around amazing person. I was at her event in Vegas

23:48

and when I tell you, I met so many great people. But

23:51

we'll talk about it on a Wealth Wednesday.

23:53

It's way up.

23:54

She's like the chout like they a Jeal Jean

23:57

like they and Jeli Jean Man.

23:58

She's spilling it all. This is yet

24:01

way off.

24:04

It's way Epamandela yee Mano is

24:06

here, no Starvin.

24:08

All right, let's get into some yet. Angel

24:11

Reesa announced today that she's headed to the WNBA.

24:14

She did this via a profile in Vogue. She

24:16

said, I've done everything I wanted to in college. I've won

24:18

a national championship. I've gotten Southeastern Conference

24:20

Player of the Year. I've been at All American.

24:22

My ultimate goal is to be a pro and to be one of

24:24

the greatest basketball players to play.

24:27

Ever. I feel like I'm ready. She

24:29

had until tonight to announce her future plans.

24:32

She had the option to remain at LSU for one more

24:34

season under the COVID waiver, but now she is going

24:36

to go to the WNBA. That draft

24:38

will be held on April fifteenth. All

24:41

right, that's gonna be huge. Donathan

24:43

Majors, he wanted a judge to toss his

24:45

criminal charges, but the court denied

24:48

that request. So that means that if the conviction

24:50

stands, that means the conviction

24:52

stands and he will be sentenced. So

24:56

you know, we're gonna find out pretty

24:58

soon. As a matter of fact, he'll be sent on April

25:00

eighth. He's facing up to one year behind

25:02

bars. That's the worst case scenario or

25:05

probation, depending on what the judge decides.

25:08

What about his Coretta, she's.

25:10

By his side, still okay? And

25:13

the Feds, according to prosecutors,

25:17

they're saying that a former

25:20

federal prosecutor, Niyama Ramani,

25:23

is also the president of West Coast

25:25

Trial Lawyers, says that the FED

25:27

raided Ditties homes over concerns of

25:30

video evidence of sex crimes

25:32

that could have been destroyed. So they did

25:34

get the search warrants to raid

25:37

the house, and they wanted to make sure they got all video

25:39

footage that was on phones, computers, drives

25:41

on the CCTVs before any of it could

25:43

be destroyed. That's why

25:46

there were so many people there. And they said the level

25:48

of force is likely because the FEDS

25:50

likely already had the case and corroborating

25:52

witnesses. This is an extra search for

25:55

evidence and is done with the element of surprise

25:57

and force so that evidence, particularly

25:59

video evidence, cannot be destroyed.

26:02

You said this.

26:03

This is the former federal prosecutor and

26:05

the president of West Coast Trial Lawyers giving

26:08

more information the significant

26:10

law enforcement presence related to the size

26:12

of his properties, and the last thing you want

26:14

when conducting a raid is to have too few

26:16

agents and to put them at a risk of violence.

26:19

There's also the possibility that individuals

26:21

flee or that they destroy evidence.

26:23

I feel like this is in response to me, says saying,

26:25

why would you have so many agents

26:28

and why would you arrest have the kids

26:30

in handcuffs and things like that. All right,

26:32

now, here's some other news that just broke chance.

26:35

The rapper and his wife, Kirsten have announced

26:37

that they are getting a divorce. They

26:39

have been separated from months, and she posted

26:41

on social media after a period

26:43

of separation, the two of us have arrived at the decision

26:46

to part ways. We came to this decision

26:48

amicably and with gratitude for the time we spent together.

26:51

God has blessed us with two beautiful daughters

26:53

who we will continue to raise together. We

26:55

kindly ask for privacy and respect as

26:58

we navigate this transition. Man,

27:01

they've been together for quite some time, and at

27:03

such a young age. Two five

27:05

years they were married, but I think they were together before

27:07

that, you know, for a while too so and

27:10

he always tells the story about how much he really wanted he

27:12

did a whole album for his wife. All right, and

27:14

Rob Wade was arrested in Florida for possession

27:16

of a firearm by a convicted felon.

27:19

This actually happened today. That's the arrest

27:22

of April third, twenty twenty four, and

27:24

so we will have more information for you as

27:26

that breaks and Made in America is not

27:28

going to take place in twenty twenty four. And they just

28:22

so I posted on Instagram and a

28:24

whole bunch of people was telling me have the birthday

28:27

particular. My ins fiancee commented

28:29

on it, and we haven't been in contact. Man,

28:32

God lord, how long? She basically

28:34

told me half the birthday I love you, and

28:36

I just you know, responded fans and

28:38

was like, thank you, I love you, I love

28:41

you.

28:43

No that old thing back,

28:45

no, but I don't know.

28:47

Yeah, I was responding to everybody.

28:49

Well, first of all, happy birthday, Sarah. You ruined

28:51

your day right and

28:54

that's your ex fiance, not your ex girlfriend,

28:57

not somebody you're messed with. Does she know you're

28:59

in a relation and ship? Yeah, that's

29:01

disrespectful already. And then you wrote

29:03

that back to her. You know how that made your woman feels.

29:06

That's what I'm saying.

29:07

I don't have with

29:09

no woman there. You my girl understand

29:12

that, So it ain't like like we're grown.

29:14

Well, then why is she mad?

29:16

If she understands that, why is she mad?

29:17

Because he said, I love you.

29:19

Listen, immature.

29:21

Even when you're talking to me, you're acting like

29:24

it's no big deal. It is a big deal

29:26

to her, So you cannot say

29:29

it's nothing. She knows this. She knows that

29:31

it may have looked silly publicly. You know

29:33

how many people probably looked at your birthday post,

29:36

friends, family members, her friends, your friends,

29:38

and was like, WHOA.

29:39

So I ain't trying to jumping by you though, and I'm

29:42

not thinking away from her feels. I

29:44

didn't say none of that to her. Immediately

29:47

apologized. I'm gonna tell you exactly what I

29:49

said. Immediate dude, I said,

29:51

I'm sorry for being inconsiderate, rude, and

29:53

stupid. I take it down immediately and

29:55

then I say no, excuse me. And then

29:58

I said I'm sorry, please forgive me.

30:00

Okay, And what does she say?

30:02

She said, no, you're will or I don't care. I

30:04

say no excuse to say, leave me alone?

30:07

And then I'm sorry, please forgive me. She say,

30:09

I'm good.

30:10

You know I would say, man, Okay.

30:12

No you wouldn't. You know she's upset, and

30:14

so you just have to respect that.

30:19

Do they know each other? Do your

30:21

ex and your new brother? They don't know each other.

30:23

Nah, they don't know each other. They're from two different

30:26

points of earth.

30:27

What happened when she came home?

30:29

Just walking past each other?

30:32

Okay, well, now you got to say let's talk, and

30:34

you got to set that up. And when she gets

30:36

when she gets home today, maybe have some food

30:39

ready if you have to order it, whatever you have to

30:41

do. Sit down with some wine. Let's

30:43

have a conversation. Let's discuss this. I

30:45

ruined my birthday yesterday. I did not mean

30:47

to do that to you. It's all about you. I

30:50

made a mistake. I'll never do it again. All

30:52

the things you have to say and mina and also

30:54

know how to move forward and ask her what does

30:56

she need you to do now you want me to block

30:58

her blocked because

31:01

that was disrespectful of her to do that. You know she

31:03

knew what she was doing.

31:04

It had to be Melissa, like she just

31:06

started following me on my birthday,

31:09

like we've been broke up for like ten years,

31:11

we just started following me up today.

31:13

Ten years. Because then that makes it feel

31:15

like you miss her, Like why did you even respond

31:18

to her? Y'all? Ain't y been together? You're still thinking

31:20

about her? You just need to You

31:22

need to like.

31:23

Other girls on that too, who said I love

31:25

you and I said I love you back too.

31:29

Yes, I'll say right,

31:33

And just how you're talking to us and arguing with us

31:35

about it, don't do that with her. Just listen

31:37

to what she's saying. You understand

31:39

your messed up period, not well

31:41

but this, but that, but this hapened.

31:43

No, well, I'm just doing that with.

31:45

Y'all to pick y'all brain. I ain't gonna do that

31:47

with her because that'll sound like justifying or

31:50

excuse me.

31:50

All right, well, thank you, I appreciate you for calling

31:53

you seem like a good guy, said thank

31:55

31:57

31:59

was ask ye eight hundred two nine two

32:01

fifty one fifty in case you couldn't get through. And

32:04

when we come back, it's a Wealth Wednesday and

32:06

we have the founder of Stocks and Stilettos, Cassandra

32:09

Commings, joining us as we kick

32:11

off Financial Literacy Month. It's way up.

32:14

I had a dream of wealthy and I

32:16

don't mind sharing my wealth dog.

32:18

Getting you straight financially, mentally and

32:20

physically. This is Wealth Wednesday on

32:22

Way Up with Angela Yee.

32:23

What's it's way up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela

32:26

Yee and my Wealth Wednesday partner, Stacy Tisdale

32:28

is here today.

32:29

Happy National Financial Literacy

32:31

Month, and we are going to make

32:34

you all very literate in the stock market,

32:36

so we don't miss this next bull market

32:39

with the one and only Cassandra Cummings,

32:42

who is the founder of the Stocks and Stiletto

32:44

Society, which is a group of over one hundred

32:46

thousand black female investors,

32:49

and she's also the author of Fearless

32:52

Finance, a timeless guide to building wealth.

32:55

Always a pleasure to have you, by the way, such

32:57

an amazing community. When I went to her event in

32:59

Vague, I met so many people that I keep in touch

33:02

with to this day really, you know, and I think

33:04

things like that are so valuable because you want

33:06

to be around people who are interested

33:08

in the things that you're interested in. In the conversations

33:10

that we were able to have, I mean I met angel investors,

33:13

hotel owners, all black women

33:16

you know at this event. So yeah, its

33:18

credible.

33:19

First of all, tell everybody about Stocks and Stiletto Society.

33:21

It's over one hundred thousand.

33:23

The fastest going online community for women investors.

33:26

Yes, it is.

33:27

So.

33:27

I started the community about eight years

33:29

ago, and I really

33:32

just wanted to teach women how to buy

33:34

stock, how to buy and sale stock in the stock

33:36

market, because when I was with the firm,

33:39

a lot of my clients didn't look like me. And I'm

33:42

like, you know, we have to be at this table.

33:44

And the community has grown. We actually reach

33:47

about a quarter of a million people.

33:48

Right now, I'm talking to Cassandra Cummings, she's

33:51

the founder of Stocks and Stilettos. Stay,

33:53

sy, what's your question?

33:54

How did you get that many black women

33:57

to invest in stocks when you consider sixty

33:59

percent of black women in this country

34:01

and not invested at all.

34:02

I know, I was so shocked to see that statistic

34:05

sixty percent of black women are not investing

34:07

in the stock market, and I think it has

34:09

to do with creating a sort

34:12

of sorority around money.

34:14

And then I also feel like sometimes we feel

34:17

that we don't have the extra money to

34:19

be able to invest.

34:20

You don't need to be rich to invest as

34:23

the first stuff.

34:24

Yeah, you don't have to be rich to invest.

34:26

And I think inside of the community, what

34:28

happens is that you get that proximity

34:31

to success. So you see other

34:33

women making strides. They're

34:35

starting with two hundred dollars and growing their accounts

34:37

to twenty thousand dollars, and that's inspiring

34:40

other women to also know that they

34:42

can do.

34:43

It as well.

34:43

And so I think the community itself, we

34:46

just sort of feed off each other because success

34:48

leaves clues and success is

34:50

contagious. We're hitting all time highs

34:52

with the s and P five hundred, all time housed

34:55

highs with the Doal Jones. You definitely

34:57

have to take some risk because our money is just not

34:59

going to work for us if we put in a CD

35:02

or put in a savings account.

35:03

A lot of people don't realize when they think about the stock

35:05

market, they think of risk the US stock market.

35:08

Over time, averaging out the ups and downs

35:10

has averaged about a nine percent return

35:14

every year, and you just can't beat

35:16

that anywhere else. But where can

35:18

people begin?

35:19

I mean, you can begin with the mag seven. They're

35:22

magnificent seven, right, that's your Apples,

35:24

your amazons in video Netflix

35:28

Meta, you know, So start with the max

35:30

seven. The Max seven alone returns

35:33

seventy percent.

35:34

Last year, my son turned me on to

35:36

micro investing because he had a little

35:38

He asked me for my debit card for acorns, okay,

35:41

and I gave it to him. And then a couple

35:43

months later I looked and there's one thousand dollars in this account,

35:45

and I'm like, what are you doing? Yeah, and he

35:48

asked me on top of that instead of allowances,

35:51

well, in addition to allowances, I should say, he

35:53

adds like forty dollars a month to it.

35:55

Nice.

35:55

Can you believe that account? I wanted to tell you that is

35:57

twenty eight thousand. It's

36:00

an investing spare change, so

36:02

getting an app rounding up. There's

36:04

so many ways to participate in this market

36:07

now.

36:07

And he's just in college now, so that's

36:10

great. It's a wealth Wednesday. It's Financial

36:12

Literacy Month and Cassandra Cummings, the founder

36:14

of Stocks and Stilettos, is here. So

36:17

is my Wealth Wednesday partner, Stacy Tisdale. And

36:19

when we come back, we'll have information on how

36:21

you can also join Cassandra's free seminars

36:24

Spring into Stocks. It's a new initiative

36:26

to get more black people investing.

36:28

Had a dream of wealthy and I don't

36:30

mind sharing my wealth dog getting you

36:32

straight financially, mentally and physically.

36:35

This is Wealth Wednesday on Way Up with Angela

36:37

Yee.

36:38

What's up?

36:38

Its Way Up with Angela Yee. I'm Angela Yee. It's

36:40

a Wealth Wednesday. So Stacy Tisdale is here

36:42

and we have the founder of Stax and Stiletto

36:45

Society, Cassandra Cummings here.

36:47

Stacy, what's your question.

36:49

You have a free initiative for people

36:51

called Spring into Stocks.

36:53

Yes, about about it. I'm excited.

36:55

Spring into Stocks is our free

36:58

spring stock market even that

37:00

we're doing. And so we're basically taking

37:03

Spring and we're breaking it down. Each letter

37:05

stands for something, so S is going to

37:07

be for stock basics. We're going to show you how to

37:09

get into the market. P is

37:12

for passive income. We're gonna show you how the stock

37:14

market can help you make passive income.

37:17

R is for reads real estate investment

37:19

trusts, how you can basically have digital

37:21

real estate. And then I is for index

37:23

funds. We're gonna go over index funds, and

37:27

is for stocks you need to own now. And

37:29

then G is gonna be for graphs and charts.

37:31

How do you actually read charts? What are some of this you

37:34

know, mystical stuff that you see on

37:36

charts. We're gonna break that down for you. So spring into

37:39

stocks, no gate keeping here, and

37:41

it's free.

37:42

It's free.

37:42

It's free, and all you have to do to get it

37:44

is follow Cassandra. We'll follow stocks

37:46

and stilettos on Instagram.

37:48

But I really putting small amounts

37:51

to work and dollar something called dollar cost

37:53

averaging, which means, no matter what the market's doing,

37:55

you put the same amount in like once a month, I tay

37:57

have an extra forty dollars now

38:00

to my bank account and just put into one of these

38:02

investment apps. That's how you really build wealth.

38:04

And that's key to you know, putting

38:06

it on autopilot, because that way

38:09

you don't have to think about it. And

38:11

if you can do that or if you know you're in real

38:13

estate, you get commission check. Just no off the top,

38:15

I'm putting ten percent over here in

38:18

this account. Just really creating

38:20

those habits for yourself. You talk about

38:22

starting small, There are a lot of companies

38:25

that are going to be doing stock splitz.

38:27

We just had Walmart do a stock split. We

38:30

recently had Tesla Apples. So

38:33

basically what happens is that they give

38:35

you if you have a share and they say it's

38:37

going to be a two for one split, you'll

38:40

now have two shares, but it

38:42

will have the same value as that one

38:44

share had. So if you had a share that was

38:46

one hundred dollars and they're going to do a two for

38:48

one split, now you'll have two shares

38:51

that are worth fifty dollars.

38:53

And so we have Chipotle.

38:55

Believe it or not, Chipotle, it's a

38:57

three thousand dollars a share

39:00

stock and it's about to do a fifty

39:02

to one split. If you do the math,

39:04

it's going to be about sixty dollars. I think right

39:07

a fifty to one split.

39:08

Chipotle at sixty dollars is a buye.

39:11

It's a huge buy and so you have to

39:13

pay attention to these types of things. We talk about

39:15

these things in our community. Redd

39:17

it just went public, right, so we talk about

39:20

companies that go public. Should we get

39:22

in? What price should we get in? So all of these

39:24

conversations are taking place inside of the community.

39:27

Do I have to know how to invest to become

39:29

a member of the Stocks and Stilettos society?

39:31

You don't.

39:32

We start with where you are. So we have women

39:34

who have never bought stock to women who

39:37

have seven figure portfolios.

39:39

So we really sort of you know, it's like a

39:41

Montessori school.

39:42

Yeah, everybody.

39:45

On different levels.

39:46

Right.

39:46

How do people join?

39:48

So they can join the Facebook group by

39:50

going to bit dot lead Stocks and Stilettos.

39:53

And if you're not able to join inside

39:55

the group, you can follow us on Facebook. That's

39:57

open to everybody.

39:58
